Your Cuisinart Gas Grill is intended for use only with LP (Liquid Propane) gas. Natural Gas is NOT Liquid Propane Never use any other fuel source with your grill, as it will create a dangerous situation. · CAN I ADD LAVA ROCKS, CERAMIC TILES, OR CHARCOAL BRIQUETTES TO MY CUISINART GAS GRILL? NO. Your grill is not intended to operate with these items, and doing so may create an unsafe situation, and will void your warranty. You may use wood planks or a wood chip "smoker box" on top of the cooking grate surface, but nothing should go under the cooking grate. · CAN I BUY ACCESSORIES FOR MY GRILL OVER THE PHONE? Yes, you can call 1-800-211-9604 for assistance. 8. Troubleshooting • BURNER WON'T LIGHT (USING A 16.4OZ OR 14.1OZ LP BOTTLE) • Be sure LP bottle still has fuel in it by gently shaking it - there will be sounds of liquid inside if fuel remains. • Check to see that the venturi tube air inlet screen is not covered or clogged (see 6. Care and Maintenance ). • Check to see that burner orafice holes are clear. If obstructed, with gas bottle disconnected, gently brush orafice holes with a small brush. • Check to see that ignitor is producing a spark against the burner (best checked in shady spot). If above do not solve problem, unless LP tank is new, replace with new tank and attempt lighting again. • G RILL DOESN'T REACH HIGH ENOUGH TEMPERATURE (USING LP BOTTLE) • Be sure LP bottle still has fuel in it by gently shaking it - there will be sounds of liquid inside if fuel remains. • Check to see that the venturi tube air inlet screen is not covered or clogged (see 6. Care and Maintenance ). • Test gas system for leaks (see 5.4 Leak Check Method) 12 9. What To Expect The Alfrescamore Outdoor Pizza Oven has been designed to be the easiest way to make your own brick oven style pizza at home and we hope you enjoy it. Cooking The oven is designed to cook evenly, but as with any grill or appliance you may have some unique variables, but that's where the fun of becoming the pizza expert comes in. Use your peel and check your crust while the pizza cooks. Turn and slide the pizza as needed just like real pizza chefs do! Weather Cold or windy conditions will slow or prevent your oven from reaching its maximum temperatures, but that's OK. It will just take a little longer to make your pizzas. The oven will still cook evenly. Making Pizza You should create your pizza right on your pizza peel so once it's done you can slide it right into the oven. Dough can be a tricky and sticky ingredient so make sure to use some corn meal on the peel to keep your dough from sticking, but there is no need to throw corn meal or flour on the stone itself. Hinged Lid Our patent-pending, hinged lid makes cleaning the surface very easy. It's also a great feature for fixing small mishaps while you're cooking, but it's best to keep the lid down as much as possible to keep the heat inside. Smoke Chip Cup The integrated smoke chip cup is a great way to add smoky, wood fired flavor to your pizza experience. However, remember you are putting wood in a hot oven and it is combustible. If the chips/chunks ignite it's OK as the flame will be contained in the steel and aluminum, but you should expect some soot on the inside roof of your grill and maybe a slight discoloration where the flame contacts the steel. None of this will affect the performance of your grill and the added heat and smoke can actually improve pizza cooking like a real wood fired pizza. To prevent the chips/chunks from igniting you should soak them in water for about an hour. Always be careful, responsible and attentive when grilling, especially with wood chips. Never leave the oven unattended and follow manual instructions and warnings precisely. Cordierite Pizza Stone Occasionally some debris from pizza will slip onto the stone. That's completely normal. You can scrape debris off when you're done to keep the surface clear, and you can wash the stone with water if you choose, but it is not necessary. Pizza stones condition a lot like a cast iron pan. You can also "bake" the stone clean by running on high for about 15 minutes with nothing on it. The high temperatures will burn off a lot of the material. Never use detergents to clean the stone as it is porous and will absorb the detergents Gas Usage Your oven comes ready to use with any 1LB Propane Tank that you can find at any home center, mass store, grocery store etc. We designed it this way to be the simplest and most portable option for you. These tanks will run about an hour and a half of continuous use on high. If you're going to be using the oven in a little more stationary manner then you can simply connect an LP Adapter Hose (See Accessories in the back) to a 20lb tank and get a lot more cooking time.
